Pros:

cheaper than retinoids and works pretty well

Cons:

might give headaches, might make you throw up on an empty stomach, takes a little while to work so DONT STOP YOUR ORIGINAL REGIME!!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that if you take too much zinc oxide (over 50mg), it interferes with copper absorption. seriously, go look it up if you dont believe. Thats why some products carry extra copper. But Zinc Monomethionine does not interfere with copper absorption, and i saw it to be about 4-5$ in vitamin shoppe. it was called optizinc. and to those taking over 150mg of zinc a day, i hope it isnt zinc oxide cause you might get sick in the long run. take care

Pros:

I'm 25 and I've had bad skin since I was 16. I'd long given up trying to cure the problem, but I started taking multivitamins (A to Zinc) and noticed a HUGE improvement in my skin. Its never been so clear.

Cons:

Skin is a little dry

I started with multivitamins and realised it must have been the zinc content (as little as 5mg) that was doing the trick. I've recently complemented them with 15mg zinc tablets. I think those who are taking 25+ - esp. like 100mg - are taking too much.

Pros:

Can be a "cure" if you've got the defficiency.

Cons:

Doesnt always work and the supplements can contain ingredients such as iodine.

Worth a try, I think its helped a little with me. Could be very useful.

Pros:

very affordable and the tablets are really small

Cons:

i get side affects from taking Zinc, our bodies react different than others, and it seems my body doesnt like the Zinc because it makes me feel really tired, exhausted and unable to focus

ive been using it for 2 days now, i thinks its still too early to se a difference and hopefully my body gets adapted to it, ill keep everyone posted. I Also bought the Zinc topical i read reviews on that one being very effective.

Pros:

Slows down acne.
Less oil.

Cons:

Nothing noticeable.

I never have high expectations anymore, so I had 4 bucks to throw away and tried 65mg a day (2 25mg Zinc gluconate pills, 1 One A Day's (15mg of zinc in it.) I still have acne over a month later of this diet, and I will say it calmed it the hell down. I still get acne though, and will not stop until it's cured, so I'm going to try Claravis (Accutane). But I'm sure if it helped me a bit, it will help you.

I have been using Zinc 30mg for a while now. However I do not have any headache since I am taking it with food sometimes with breakfast and sometimes with dinner. It is good, I will keep using it until I find more cons and I will keep posting. At least try it out, they sell it pretty cheap too.
